...his prince obsession is getting out of hand I think. 

:) 



it's going to be a orange squeezer or ross comp and dual ts-9s fwiw.  Guy loves phish...and prince.

Nothing wrong with Phish! Trey's work is freaking unreal. That's guitarist who understands tone.

As for the Purple starlight... I used one for a Trem I built. I like the colour a lot. Getting more than 3 switches on a 1790NS would be tricky, I normally use it for just two footswitches. Go with the Ross Comp - it's easier to make sound good.

I ordered 3 enclosures from PPP, they look ok.  The galaxy purple enclosure I ordered had chips when I got it...  I had to pay to ship it back, but they did send a new one back to me at no charge.  The 125b enclosure I received has a gap where the lid fits on the bottom.  I thought it was the bottom lid but it turns out the enclosure bottom has an 1/8" difference lengthwise when its set on a flat surface.  Look at the pic of the purple starlight how there is a gap on the bottom lengthwise.  Mines worse.  The hammond cases from them are fine but be wary of the generics.

oh....no it's a hammond DD size box.  that is a color sample pic. 

I get all my enclosures from PPP, I don't like to put any labels or decals on them though.

I also get my enclosures from PPP. I've experienced a couple flawed enclosures, but their customer service has been very high for me. Every time they make it right.

They've discontinued some colours I really liked though.

I agree that looks like a decent store indeed, and they're sort of centrally located being in Oklahoma, which is good.  I haven't double-checked with documentation, but it looks like they stock the Aqua Boy chips.  I don't think they have the right ones for the pork barrel though.  :(

madbean, are you still going to start stocking the pork barrel ic's?

Yes, I am looking into that. Right now I'm working on getting in some MN3005. If that works out okay, I think I can get the MN3007/MN3101 no problem.

Just to re-iterate: in the meantime, futchamusic on eBay has a reliable combo for $6 for anyone who needs one right away.

I got these 5 mn3007 and 5 mn3101 for $19. It took about 2 weeks for delivery but they come from china. They have bigger quantities too if you want them.

First experience with Mammoth Electronics very positive! I ordered a sea foam green enclosure, cream knobs, switch, and some pots. Order was shipped very quickly and everything was in order. Two thumbs up!

irmcdermott
